Why? - In this edition of the Affiliate Buzz audio newsletter James Martell, successful publisher, speaker and author talks with Dr. Andy Williams from WebContentStudio. (http://jamesmartell.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/AffBuzz-140x140-webmasterradio.jpg)Out of 13,600,000 indexed pages only 801 are displayed. Why? In this edition of the Affiliate Buzz audio newsletter James Martell, successful publisher, speaker and author talks with Dr. Andy Williams from WebContentStudio.com (opens in new window) about niche vocabulary and getting your content noticed on Google. With new advancements in technology it has become relatively simple for anybody to get published online to share their thoughts and ideas. But getting noticed takes a bit more than putting pen to paper, or should I say finger to keyboard and hitting upload. With the multitude of pages being published daily new and seasoned marketers alike need to be at the top of their game if they want Google to pick them up and rank them well enough to be seen. But what does it take to be at the top of your game in the eyes of Google? Who better to answer that question than two seasoned full time marketers who have been making a living online for 10 years. Making Your Content Stand Out In the crowd During this edition of the Buzz James and Andy build out just what it takes to get your content noticed online. Andy's recently published article "Niche Vocabulary - Why Poor Content Can't Hide in Google (http://www.famousbloggers.net/niche-vocabulary-poor-content-google.html)" on FamousBloggers.net (http://www.famousbloggers.net) is at the heart of their discussion as they take you step-by-step through each aspect of building out a quality article that can stand the test of time and Google. From detailed graphs to live examples you'll hear exactly how to build out your research and why. Handing an idea over to your writers without substance is likely going to end in an article that is bland, quickly forgotten or easily missed. But knowing how and what to research gives you the meat you need for a full, well remembered article. To support the theory behind needing meat, primarily that built out using niche vocabulary, Andy emphasizes an example used in his article on a search query for epilepsy treatment (http://epilepsymoms.com/). Out of the 13,600,000 indexed pages only 801 are displayed. Why? Because those articles stood the test of quality content visitors are after. Andy explains the correlation he found between niche vocabulary and indexing of these pages. For some authors the task of seeking out niche vocabulary may be difficult to comprehend. That's why Andy designed the Web Content Studio tool (http://www.ezseonews.com/go.php?offer=netcarts&pid=12&tid=jm), a tool that helps authors identify that much needed niche vocabulary to fill out your article content. With it you can design pages that are full of reliable information and niche vocabulary Google expects to see. Listen to this edition of the Affiliate Buzz as James and Andy talk about: * Importance of niche vocabulary * How Google selects the pages to index * Tools for finding your niche vocabulary Why continue throwing content online and hoping it will get picked up? It's time to take your online presence to the next level, find your niche vocabulary and make your content known. And if you are...

(http://jamesmartell.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/AffBuzz-140x140-webmasterradio.jpg)In this edition of the Affiliate Buzz audio newsletter James Martell, successful publisher, speaker and author talks with wife and co-host Arlene Martell about how to appropriately use anchor text for backlinks that will move your site up in the search results. Before getting into the strategies they use with anchor text optimization James and Arlene take a minute to "brag" on their kids and the successes each one has had. While bragging on our children is every parents forte the Martell family has been fortunate to be a "stay at home" parenting team as well as have the ability to utilize productive summer camps each year. Moving right along it's time to get down to business and discover tips on how you can enjoy the luxuries of "stay at home" parenting too. One sure way to meet this dream is through proper placement of your website in the search results, but it won't get there accidentally and if you're not careful you might end up hurting your rankings instead! What Is Anchor Text? To begin James and Arlene pull out two of the most frequent questions they receive in their inbox where so many ask, what is anchor text anyway? Additionally there seems to be confusion on the interchangeable terms such as keywords and keyword phrases when it comes to backlinks. So what exactly is the definition of anchor text? James defines the term anchor text using a simple to follow example, bringing it to life for everyone to understand. You'll hear a live example of a gentleman that runs his own SEO business where he gets paid top dollar to get his clients' sites ranking in the top 10 but made a critical error! Anchor Text the Right Way Getting quality backlinks that benefit your site does require a bit of a personal touch and attention to detail. When it comes to knowing how to mix it up and when to stop James and Arlene Know what they're talking about as they walk you through live examples of getting it done right. For example Quenton Fyfe owns a driving school in London, UK (http://clickdrivingschools.co.uk/driving-schools-in-london-page1.asp). James determined for him to compete in his market he needs to rank for keywords like driving schools in London, UK or driving schools in Manchester, UK (http://clickdrivingschools.co.uk/driving-schools-in-manchester-page1.asp). To demonstrate how to properly rank James lists out all the variations Quenton will want to use in each of his PAD articles for his backlinks. Anchor text isn’t only about using the same word over and over again. Rather it involves a personal touch and some creativity to mix it up and enjoy the rankings that follow. Listen to this edition of the Affiliate Buzz as James and Arlene talk about: * Tips for properly selecting anchor text for backlinks * Tips on how to vary up your phrases to keep you on Google's good side * Harmful tactics you want to avoid with your backlinking campaigns * What to expect while waiting for results If you're ready to get your website ranking in the top 10 tune in and listen as James and Arlene offer you tips and examples for using anchor text correctly.
